WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER YOUR TREATMENT?

There is little to no downtime after microdermabrasion, although you may experience mild and temporary discomfort and skin redness afterwards. You should be able to resume your daily activities immediately. Keep your skin hydrated and use gentle skin care products. Avoid using topical acne medications for at least one day after treatment. It's extremely important to protect your skin with sunscreen. Your skin can be more sensitive to the sun in the few weeks after the treatment.

RISKS OR SIDE EFFECTS OF MICRODERMABRASION?

This procedure may spread infections from one part of your skin to another. You should not have microdermabrasion if you have skin infections such as impetigo, or have had warts, herpes and other viral infections. Sometimes it can make other conditions like rosacea flare up. Microdermabrasion is not suitable for people with bleeding disorders, open sores, warts or sunburn, or those who developed keloid scars should avoid the technique. You may be told to avoid sun exposure, tanning creams, and waxing for about a week before treatment. You may also be advised to stop using exfoliating creams and masks approximately three days prior to treatment.

Micro-Needling

Micro-needling is a procedure that uses small needles to prick the skin. The purpose of treatment is to generate new collagen and skin tissues for smoother, firmer, more toned skin.

The Benefits of Micro needling:

Improved fine lines and deep wrinkles

Reduced appearance of scars (including acne scars)

Softened stretch marks

Lightened hyperpigmentation such as sun and age spots

Reduced pores

Smoother and firmer skin

Reduced appearance of spider veins and broken capillaries

Even out skin tone and

A youthful glow.

1. Cleansing Your Skin

For the first 72 hours following your micro needling treatment, only clean your face with lukewarm water (not hot or cold) and a gentle cleanser. Always make sure to clean your hands before washing your face and touching the treated skin.

2. The Importance of Hydration and Specialized Serums

Our serums will help soothe and heal the skin while reducing irritation. Since your skin will feel drier than usual, you can hydrate and restore your skin's balance with a serum containing hyaluronic acid as well.
Using moisturizers with hyaluronic acid and spritzing hydrating water sprays whenever your skin feels dry can also help soothe your skin.

Drink plenty of water to hydrate and to help heal your skin faster.

3. Avoiding Irritants and Makeup

Do not wear makeup for 24 to 72 hours following your micro needling treatment so you can allow your skin to breathe and recover. Also, do not use a makeup brush at this time- especially a dirty one. When it is safe to use a makeup brush again, make sure only to use clean ones as contaminated brushes can cause skin irritation and infections. Your skin is sensitive and healing during this rejuvenation process, so avoid using any products that could irritate it or clog your pores.

4. Protecting your skin from the Sun

Immediately after your treatment, you should only use chemical-free topical lotions. It is best to avoid the sun altogether. If you must go out in the sun, you will need to apply a broad-spectrum SPF 25 or higher sunscreen. A hat could also be used if you are going to be outside. These measures should also be part of your regular day-to-day skin care routine, to protect your skin from premature aging.

5. No Need for Exfoliation

While your skin is healing, do not use any abrasive products like exfoliators and alcohol- based toners. While it may be tempting to exfoliate your skin, you must remember that it is healing and regenerating. You should only apply products that help soothe and heal the skin during this time.


One week after treatment:

-Powered cleansing brushes

-Alpha and Beta Hydroxy Acids

-Retinol (Vitamin A)

-Vitamin C (low-pH formula) scrubs; and

-Anything perceived as "active" skincare.


Even on regular days, it's important to treat your skin gently with products that are effective but not damaging to your skin. When you are healing you must show additional care to get optimal results from your treatment.
